• Place a pizza stone in oven and preheat to 460°F. (Tip: If you don’t have a pizza stone, you can use an upside-down baking sheet.)

For the Seasoned Beef

• In a large skillet, add the ground beef and cook until evenly browned.
• Add water and all of the seasonings (chili powder, paprika, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder and cayenne pepper). Simmer over medium-high heat for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Set cooked beef aside.

For the Pizza

• Roll pizza dough into a 12-13” round circle.
• In a small dish, whisk together the ingredients for the Herbed Crust (olive oil, cumin and salt). Brush the outer 1" of the dough with this mixture.
• Spread the refried beans evenly around the center of the dough.
• Sprinkle mozzarella and cheddar cheese evenly around top of pizza.
• Sprinkle cooked beef and green onions evenly on top of cheese.
• Bake pizza at 460°F for 12-13 minutes, or until crust is golden brown.
• Remove pizza from oven and top with pickled jalapenos, shredded lettuce, tomatoes and cilantro.
• Drizzle or drop small spoonfuls of sour cream around top of pizza. Drizzle with hot sauce before serving (optional).
